"Wings Of Glass"

I am a full time artist living in Orlando Fl, with my husband and our family of 2 Shih Tzus.
Nature Scapes in acrylic are among my favorite things to paint and this blog will show the progress of my works in their different stages. Many of my paintings are created using multiple canvases to create a sculptural affect. If you have any questions you would like me to answer about my work or techniques, please let me know and I will be happy to blog about it.
I am also a busy jewelry artist and will be posting photos of finished pieces of interest.
I'll also be including lots of garden photos and other inspirational pictures along the way.

"Beyond The Depths" - Abstract Acrylic Triptych

"Beyond The Depths" is the newest abstract triptych painting to leave my studio this week. Would you believe when I sat down to first start working on this, it was supposed to be a hummingbird painting? After the first day I was thinking "ok, maybe I see a hummingbird in there somewhere." By the end of the second day this piece let me know that it wanted to be an abstract, one that focuses on the deep, dark and unchartered depths of the ocean. I think it is really important to listen to my work; my paintings always guide me in the direction they want me to take. Sometimes pieces turn out just as I envision them and other times, like with this painting, they take me in a totally different direction and it is up to me to listen.

The painting I'm currently working on was supposed to be a garden sculpture painting with abstract elements and instead, it turned into a fairy painting......see what I mean? I just listened and that is where the painting led me. Hopefully that one will be finished in the next few days.

Ruth how wonderful to see that you popped by my Nature Trail! After being absent from blogging for some time it is good to re-connect with so many friends! Your creativity is inspirational!Listen to your inner voice and your creativity takes flight!

Hi Ruth,Lovely to view your pretty fairy painting once again. Hope you are enjoying the Fall season and also your little break to do all the things you need done. I am trying to fit in gardening and Fall cleanup when I can. Going to take a few days from the 27th-4th to break and regroup for the holiday. Stock the shelves and catch up before the mad rush. LOL It seems to get earlier every year.

Hope you are enjoying a nice weekend and thank you for stopping by and your kind comment. It means so much coming from a talent such as you my friend.Big hugs, Celestina Marie

Thanks for stopping by my page. As you can see I haven't been on in a while. I'm sure I'll get some updated posts on there soon. I love this painting! Especially the colors. It's very relaxing just to look at it. Also, I'm a big fan of fairies, so I can't wait to see any others!Holly
